If you have iTunes 4.5 or 4.6, you do not need to install AudibleManager in order to download files from Audible.com.

All you need is the iTunes plug-in for Audible available on the Audible Get Software page. Its a small file. If you can't download it from work, you could download it from home and put it on a disk and install it on another computer from the disk.

What should I expect after installing the iTunes plug-in? I created my Audible account last night and although I installed the plug-in, I don't see that it does anything. iTunes looks the same, no audible play list and no new menu options.

I installed Audible Manager and imported my book by adding the file to my iTunes library but as parannoya pointed out in another thread, I don't think I need the AM features so I would prefer to stick with iTunes.

Is the iTunes plug-in only for books purchased from the iTunes store? When I download from my library at audible.com, AM kicks in and the files download. I'm curious as to how that will work with the plug-in.

If you download the plug-in, all you will see upon installation is a little box asking you to set the download location. (its a little app called adhelper.exe

Then, when you downnload a file from Audible, you will see a download status popup box, and iTunes will launch automatically when the download is complete and will automatically import the file into iTunes library and create a playlist called "Audible"

Note: If you have already installed and are running AudibleManager, then it will conduct the download instead of the iTunes Download Manager. So make sure you fully exit out of Audiblemanager.
